How much does this jacket weigh? Is the shell made of tough ripstop material? Is the Omni-heat lining visible inside the jacket?

Not sure of exact weight but it is very lightweight, comfortable and warm. Shell is 100%Polyester ripstop material. The Omni is visible inside the jacket.I would purchase this jacket again. Was warm, in a Minneapolis winter last year.

The jacket is made of a very soft outer material, and does not appear to be extremely tough. It is lightweight, does not feel heavy, although the jacket is very warm. The lining is visible on the inside as shinny panels. I have a cheaper Down Jacket that I purchased at Sam's years ago that is similar, although it is more comfortable. I never get too hot in that jacket, and I never get cold in our East Tennessee Winters. This Columbia Jacket will probably be warmer and especially useful in colder climates. Wearing it inside only so far, I got hot in a hurry! I also purchased a Carhart Down Jacket that does have a shell made of a much tougher material, but not quite as rough or coarse as the normal Carhart jacket. The Columbia one has a lot of nice features, and I think that I am going to like it.

Good morning. I purchased the jacket for my granddaughter. She told me it was indeed warm and waterproof and she loves it. She was skeptical, as was I, at first because it is so lighweight. But all skepticism was swept aside when she wore it for the first time in cold, damp weather. She has worn it ever since in those conditions. Hope this helps.

The jacket itself is very light and warm. Those are probably for shipping purpose.

I don't have it in front of me, but it's just regular lightweight raincoat material. Feels more like fabric inside, and the outside has a plastic/rubbery feel. It's very lightweight. Not insulated.

Sorry I don't know either, it is very light weight and the same fabric used for wind breakers. I use it for making pullover wind breakers for my husband.

By my standards is about medium weight. its not heavy or anything but it does keep me warm without me overheating. It light enough to breath. I really like it.

The material is of high quality and extremely water and wind replant. It stays lightweight even in downpours. Heavy duty and much lighter the oil cloth but keep fire away. Many tie-outs so sagging is not an issue if used correctly. Bombproof shelter for wet, warm or cool temps. However for temps cold enough to require a ground fire, canvas would out perform. This tarp is perfect for extended lightweight scouting or backpacking and wind /water will not penetrate the material.

Ah, I honestly don't know! I live in Las Vegas so I unfortunately don't get to wear enough. I bought it for my trip to Ireland which I took in march and it withstood the weather fantastically! At first I would wear xtra layers underneath but quickly found out it wasn't necessary! It would get hot quick! But it's a fantastic fantastic jacket that I wish I could wear more often! Hope this helps!

It's extremely light weight, but provided there is enough weight in it, it will stay put.. I had it at Burning Man, where it was very windy, but, I had a lot of weight inside. It got very dusty inside, due to the extreme wind and dust (playa in the Black Rock Desert) but it held up. I had no problem with ripped seems. It would, in my opinion, make a decent, inexpensive kids tent. It's quite small, but perfect for 2 small people that like each other a lot, or children. It will not go back into the bag that it came with. That to me is also not an issue. I hope this helped.

It's about 3 lbs, the zippers beefy but seems bulletproof, material seems very durable as well, haven't had a chance to use it though so I can't speak for breathability though

It weighs a couple of pounds. I was never bothered by its weight. It's performance. What I was concerned with was it 's performance which I like.You can easily pick it up when it's cool and the heat is off.

Kay, It looks to be made of a heavy nylon as it carries about 12 pounds of weight distributed on the front and back. Hope that helps; we love it it because it wraps firmly around the upper body.

It's a bit heavy but that just means you are covered well. the weight will not bother you much but the warmth might. I do not mid it at all. It moves well and seems to gather the local surroundings well. It is very hard to be seen in this suit. Instant cover. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this suit for paintball/air-soft, theme parties/scarring people, and for military bush use, as it is strong material. I have had a few this one is the best by a LONG SHOT. (wink).

Not sure I understand the question.As I understand it,it is worn under parka or shell jacket not zipped to it.I wear mine under a EMS shell jacket and I've not been cold even in the crazy cold weather we're having in Ma.Hope that helped.

The best I can help you with is the one you described and I bought was a XXL and it does have the foil lining. It is very warm and comfortable to wear. I think your best bet would be to contact Columbia to see if the tall jacket might have the same metallic reflective lining. Hope this helps.

It's a tough woven fabric, like that of gore-tex jackets or a good diaper bag. It's not uncomfortable to the touch, and it's super flexible. We're very violent with it, and there's no evidence of wear. I should mention though, that it's been about two years and it's flat as a pancake. I'm planning on refilling it, because it really is otherwise an excellent product.
